Translating the LW Hypervoxels Smoke Tutorial to LW 7.5b

[bkr]

greetings,

this question stems from the current "Hypervoxels Smoke Tutorial" (http://newtek.com/products/lightwave/tutorials/specialfx/hypervoxels_smoke/hypervoxels_smoke.html) for LW 6.5.

my question is, what in LW 7.5b replaced the FX_emitter, and how would the settings required to complete the tutorial be different?

ty for your help :D

It looks like the regular ParticleFX Emitter settings panel. Under the Items tab, just navigate through Add>PFX and select Add Particle Emitter and it should popup together with a brand new emitter. I noticed if you add a "HV emitter" you get a panel called ParticleFX emitter, whereas if you select Partigon Emitter you get a panel entitled FX_Emitter. This is probably a slipup as the panels are equal and the tutorial undoubtedly uses HV particles.

If you already have an emitter in the scene you can gain access to the panel by clicking the FX_Propery button under Scene tab, or reach it through the FX_Browser, or by doubleclicking the custom object in the Item properties panel.

Have fun playing with LWs ParticleFX, I know I always do :)
